Sara this is beautiful! Thank you so much for sharing with us the details of what you are doing and why. It is very helpful to those of us who are just getting started. And you are an excellent instructor!!!
Such a beautiful dutch- pour ! I think I told you in one of your very first videos that you we're going to become a RU-vid success and be noticed by many people and here you are! Only big numbers ahead for you my love
Oh Carol, thank you so much from the bottom of my heart for following me from the beginning! You must’ve just stumbled upon that video… I’m so grateful.🙏🙏
@@SaraTaylor I did just stumble upon that video I think it may have been your third or fourth but I was captivated and went back to look at the first and second. You're very talented my dear. Love the little girls! My daughter has twin girls. How special they are! Love that you include them in your painting. My grandchildren are always asking can we paint when they visit. I did join your Patron, now you need to offer some Zoom classes. The Dutch Port is the bane of my existence LOL. Anyways am with you, and I will be excited to take this ride with you! I watch you on my television so I am not always commenting but know that I am there !
New subscriber! Don't know why I haven't found your channel sooner. I love the way you manipulate the paints, it's more than the puddle pour or Dutch pour etc etc... Nice work 💜
Hi Sara. Love your work and your beautiful artist spirit! When you say that you add Modern Masters iridescent pearl paint, is that the same as M.M. Metallic paint. And where do you purchase it? I can seem to find iridescent. Thanks!
You’re my hero! I love how you do your version of the Dutch poor. It’s so soft and ethereal, even though you are using bold, contrasting colours from the base. I like the effects of the Ansell gold and the yellow together.
Have you tried Rinske’s recipe, I wonder? A lot of people use Floetrol but when I used Rinske’s mix of mostly Amsterdam and water, nothing else, it’s such a different effect that I wondered why, since she’s my queen of Dutch Pours, I didn’t do that earlier. Molly was the same - when she finally went to only paint and water she was so much happier with the results. My mix is so much more fluid than you’re using, it just skims over the basecoat. It’s interesting to try different consistencies.
Hi Linda! Thank you so much for the compliment. I do use a pouring medium which is 70% virtual and 30% pouring medium, either artist loft Liquitex or golden. Any of them work. For a Dutch poor, I had probably 20% water to the mix. It also depends on the paint though… I do have a paint mixing video that could be helpful. I like Dutch poor paint to be thin so it has a lot of movement. I don’t have an exact calculation for my paintings, it depends on the size, materials, and how long it takes to create.😁🙏
Absolutely gorgeous!!! I'd like to do something like this, but with sort of deep oceany colors on bottom and a bright, maybe sunset type colors in top....I dunno...still trying to decide for my big canvas for the living room...oh and I just looked and I was wrong on the size I mentioned to you before...it's 48x60🥴😒 Anyway....this is gorgeous!
Thank you Sarah for giving me permission to do a more blown out Dutch pour instead of a perfect flower petal ... I love this one as it has so much more mood. Lynne NZ
I’m wondering if you epoxy over your paintings? I’ve never seen you show one that’s been varnished or epoxied. Of course that doesn’t mean you haven’t ever posted one, I’ve just never seen it. I’d love to see what you seal it with and how it looks! Fantastic as usual! I love it!
